Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to regularize the services of part-time Civilian Bandsmen at Air Force Station, Tambaram, who had been working for extended periods without a regular pay scale. The Court found that the petitioners were unfairly treated as daily wagers and that the rejection of their regularization by the Central Administrative Tribunal was unjust. The Court emphasized the need for fair employment practices and directed the respondents to regularize the petitioners' services, thereby quashing the Tribunal's order.
